| shadowbox | oops I mean.. can | 00:04 |
| JeffATL | genii: thx | 00:05 |
| ScorpKing | !sound | shadowbox | 00:07 |
| ubotu | shadowbox: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ARTS is running, by going to K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 00:07 |

| genii | nerdparty: Please define more clearly "software properties" | 00:24 |
| nerdparty | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu The instructions here direct me to an option which should be in system>administration>software properties, but I don't see the option. | 00:25 |

| Jucato | nerdparty: those instructions are for Ubuntu/GNOME | 00:25 |

| Jucato | oh Dapper? yeah, Kubuntu doesn't have Software Properties until Feisty | 00:26 |
| Jucato | !repositories | 00:26 |
| ubotu | The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 00:26 |

| Jucato | er.. I'm off to breakfast | 00:27 |
| nerdparty | I don't understand, are ubuntu and kubuntu the same thing? | 00:27 |
| Jucato | nerdparty: not exactly. they share the same software sources, but Ubuntu uses GNOME and Kubuntu uses KDE, so it's a different setup | 00:27 |
| Jucato | they have different apps, so different ways of doing things | 00:27 |
| Jucato | genii: your turn.. I'm starving :P | 00:28 |
| nerdparty | Thanks Jucato. | 00:28 |
| nerdparty | Genii: I think I have Ubuntu, not Kubuntu. | 00:29 |
| Jucato | nerdparty: if you didn't see any System -> Administration menu at the top of your screen, then you're not running Ubuntu | 00:29 |
| genii | nerdparty: You may get better help in the #ubuntu channel for Gnome desktop | 00:29 |

| orlandoj | hi all. I have an Ubuntu NIS Server and Ubuntu Clients. How can I change the password in the client machine ? | 01:08 |
| Dr_willis | Hmm. Never used NIS. Sorry. :( | 01:11 |
| Dr_willis | Back to reading Linux News.. Good News -> VIA Technologies has announced its strategic open-source driver development initiative | 01:12 |
| sven_ | hi leutz | 01:17 |
| genii | orlandoj: It's been a while since I used NIS/yp but you may want something like to push passwd with (if recall correctly) yppasswd or so | 01:22 |
| TeslaTony | Is there any way to recover from a FIFO overrun without restarting the computer? | 01:22 |
| genii | TeslaTony: What device had the overrun? | 01:27 |
| TeslaTony | D-Link DWA 556 wireless N PCI Express card | 01:28 |
| genii | TeslaTony: Might want to unload/reload driver | 01:28 |
| orlandoj | genii: which process is necessary to be running on NIS server ? | 01:28 |
| TeslaTony | genii: Hrm...I'll try that. Unfortunately, this is a rather well known (going on for over a year) problem with madwifi | 01:29 |
| genii | orlandoj: It's been a long time since I worked with NIS, and that was on a FreeBSD system and not ubuntu. Let me look for some link which may assist you | 01:30 |
| orlandoj | genii: on server, i run yppasswd -p and return the message: "yppasswd: não foi possível encontrar o ypserver master: Erro interno no NIS" | 01:30 |
| orlandoj | it means internal error in NIS | 01:31 |
| orlandoj | and the NIS is working | 01:31 |
| genii | orlandoj: The most useful ubuntu-related NIS links I could find https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNISHowTo and 9th post on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=226437 | 01:33 |
| orlandoj | genii: thanks a lot. I'll se it. | 01:34 |

| epimeth | how do I disable strigi? | 01:43 |
| iain | hello having some problems with ark and kubuntu 8.04. I can't get it to open a .zip file.... all it keeps saying is "could not write to destination file". I'm probably doing something really dumb.... | 01:43 |
| genii | epimeth: In konqueror put url: strigi:/ and then choose to disable it from the web interface | 01:45 |
| genii | iain: Is the .zip file in a location you have write access to? | 01:46 |
| iain | should its in my home directory | 01:47 |
| genii | iain: It may be wanting to unzip into some directory you don't have write access. | 01:47 |
| iain | I'm pointing it to my home directory for that too... ohh hmmm just a sec... | 01:48 |
| noys_ | anyone know how to set up internet connection sharing i have a computer with 2 cards one is a wireless card which connects to the internet, The other is a ethernet card that connects to my xbox. I want the ethernet forwarded to the internet through my wireless | 01:48 |
| genii | iain: Since you're on Hardy perhaps also ask in #ubuntu+1 | 01:48 |
| iain | nope... I thought it might want a file/folder name for the extracted files and that's why it wasn't doing it... but that didn't work either | 01:49 |
| noys_ | so ethernet to xbox ; wireless to internet so then ; Ethernet to wireless = both get internet access. | 01:49 |
| iain | will do | 01:50 |
| iain | thanks | 01:50 |
| genii | iain: If the backend is not installed, ark would also have a problem. Make sure package unzip is installed (it's not by default) | 01:50 |
| epimeth | genii: cheers | 01:50 |
| epimeth | genii: all I can do is "start service" | 01:51 |
| genii | epimeth: If you don't need indexing you can just remove it entirely using the package manager of your choice | 01:53 |
| genii | epimeth: There seems to be some bug report of same issue you have | 01:53 |
| epimeth | genii: but I don't want to remove it.. I just want to disable it | 01:54 |
| epimeth | ~/.strigi is taking like 18 gigs | 01:54 |
| genii | epimeth: Gimme a minute I'll look further into it | 01:54 |
| epimeth | genii: cheers | 01:54 |
| noys_ | hey any ideas on the above question? | 01:55 |
| Dr_willis | noys_, at one time one would look up and setup ip-masquerading | 01:56 |
| Dr_willis | !ipmasq | 01:56 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ipmasq - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 01:56 |
| Dr_willis | but not sure whats a good referance for it now a days. | 01:56 |
| noys_ | hmm okay | 01:56 |
| Dr_willis | noys_, if you can get both machines pinging each other. and one box on the internet. It can be set up as the ipmasq server, and forward stuff to the other box. | 01:56 |
| Dr_willis | Its not hard to get going. I just havent done it in years. | 01:57 |
| noys_ | dr willis | 01:57 |
| noys_ | i can ping the xbox | 01:57 |
| epimeth | noys_: just out of curiosity... why don't you just buy a router? I mean, you can do it with linux but you'll need to keep the computer on all the time... | 01:57 |
| noys_ | and i can get on the internet | 01:57 |
| Dr_willis | the varioys firewall tools may allow you to do it with a gui. | 01:57 |
| noys_ | i do have a router but its downstairs | 01:57 |
| Dr_willis | Xbox --> PC --> internet | 01:57 |
| noys_ | :) | 01:57 |
| noys_ | yep | 01:57 |
| Dr_willis | pc needs to be setup as the ip-masq server. its about 3 lines of shell code. :) to set it up., | 01:58 |
| noys_ | wow thats it | 01:58 |
| noys_ | k im going to man ip-masq server | 01:58 |
| Dr_willis | http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sharing-internet-connection-in-ubuntu.html | 01:59 |
| Dr_willis | ip-masq is not a command. :) | 01:59 |
| Dr_willis | or is it a server. its a Feature of the kernel. | 01:59 |
| noys_ | oh okay | 01:59 |
| noys_ | Dr willis i appreciate the help | 01:59 |
| noys_ | :) | 01:59 |
| Dr_willis | You will want to learn some networking basics. :) or the howtos will be total jibberish | 02:00 |
| noys_ | i can network my home computers together and network my xbox its just cant get the xbox on the net i used firestarter at one point but thats crap | 02:00 |

| noys_ | thanks again | 02:03 |
| Dr_willis | getting the pc's networked is 1/2 the battle. | 02:04 |
| genii | epimeth: Strigi is being started from dbus. The file /usr/share/dbus-1/services/vandenoever.strigi.service reports the strigi executable is /usr/bin/strigidaemon so if you sudo killall strigidaemon that should kill it | 02:04 |
| Dr_willis | You will want to set the masq pc as the gateway for the other pc | 02:04 |
| iain | here is what ark is spurting back to me when I try to open this .zip: | 02:05 |
| iain | ark(16019) KFileItem::isDir: KFileItem::isDir can't say -> false | 02:05 |
| iain | Object::disconnect: No such slot JobTracker::totalSize(KJob*,qulonglong) | 02:05 |

| iain | Object::disconnect: No such slot JobTracker::processedSize(KJob*,qulonglong) | 02:05 |
| Dr_willis | iain, you could just forget about ark and use the command line.. much faster way to do it. :) | 02:05 |
| Dr_willis | sudo apt-get install unp | 02:05 |
| Dr_willis | unp Aboutanykindofarchiveyoucanfind | 02:05 |
| Dr_willis | and it will unpack it. :) | 02:06 |
| genii | iain: I suspect your issue may be Hardy related | 02:06 |
| iain | yeah Dr... I'm thinking that might be what I'll do... | 02:06 |
| noys_ | Dr willis im almost done well see what happens | 02:07 |
| genii | epimeth: Let me know if that works, btw | 02:07 |
| iain | and all that mucking around with gui stuff and one simple command and bang... done... ughhh | 02:07 |
| Dr_willis | right click on the package, and often theres a menu item to extract | 02:08 |
| Dr_willis | iain, now ya know why the shell rules. | 02:08 |
| iain | yup | 02:08 |
| Dr_willis | Ark is just a front end to all the command tools anyway | 02:08 |

| iain | yep... just trying to play with all the kde4 toys... oh well guess I'll wait a little longer | 02:09 |
| Dr_willis | kde4 is very much a work in progress. :) | 02:09 |
| noys_ | Dr willis i have a problem while trying to install ipmasq There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages. | 02:09 |
| iain | yup... a very nice work in progress mind you... | 02:09 |
| iain | anyway thanks for the help... now time to play some urbanterror... roaarr... | 02:10 |
| BluesKaj | Dr_willis, kde4 needs very much work in progress :) | 02:10 |
| Dr_willis | noys_, not sure what you were installing.. its a feature built int o the kernel and iptables.. | 02:10 |
| noys_ | apt-get install dnsmasq ipmasq | 02:10 |

| Jucato | hard to guess, since you seem to be asking everywhere :) | 03:06 |
| home_ | hi ppl | 03:06 |
| Buhmanator | are you in all of those other channels/ | 03:07 |
| Buhmanator | ? | 03:07 |
| iain | back again... for more questions... I was given this computer as a loaner... its a total POS, celeron with a built in intel graphics chip (865gv). How do I make sure kubuntu is using the integrated chipset and not trying to run in software? Checked my xorg.conf and its pretty bare, no mention of intel 865, etc, the dmesg log says that its been detected. | 03:07 |
| Buhmanator | ahh | 03:07 |
| Buhmanator | lol, your in #kde | 03:07 |
| Buhmanator | hi home | 03:08 |
| genii | iain: Likely it's using the "i810" driver or "intel" | 03:08 |
| Jucato | iain: afaik, since it's integrated, it's going to have to use software rendering. it doesn't have 3d hardware accelereration. | 03:09 |
| iain | its just got "Configured Video Device" | 03:09 |
| Buhmanator | Jucato, no | 03:10 |
| Buhmanator | i865 has a GPU | 03:11 |
| Buhmanator | though not the best, it IS there | 03:11 |
| Jucato | iain: look for the Driver line in xorg.conf for the Video card | 03:11 |
| Buhmanator | Jucato, it's also probably configured as like a VESA/FBDEV | 03:11 |
| Jucato | maybe | 03:11 |
| Jucato | (although by default it should use intel at installation) | 03:12 |
| iain | no my xorg is totally bare... only has the keyboard and mouse... everything else is Default whatever or Configured whatever... | 03:12 |
| Jucato | iain: can you please use a pastebin to show your xorg.conf? | 03:13 |
| Jucato | !paste | iain | 03:13 |
| ubotu | iain: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic) | 03:13 |
| iain | hehe I could just paste it here... its that small... but no I'll do the pastebin... just a sec... | 03:15 |
| Jucato | anything more than 2 lines --> pastebin | 03:15 |
| iain | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62587/ | 03:16 |
| Jucato | definitely weird. | 03:16 |
| Jucato | !xconfig | 03:16 |
| iain | yeah | 03:16 |
| ubotu | To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg » - To configure only the driver and resolution, type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh » - See also !FixRes | 03:16 |
| Jucato | you can try that. just remember to backup your xorg.conf first | 03:17 |
| iain | ughhh I feel like I'm going back to the 90's or something... hehe | 03:17 |
| genii | Thats a pretty bare xorg.conf alright | 03:17 |
| Buhmanator | 90's? | 03:17 |
| iain | manually configured xorg... just kidding... I'll give that a whirl | 03:18 |

| J4M | it says mute on, on the screen, and there's a red sign on the kmix tray icon | 03:29 |
| J4M | but I still get sound | 03:29 |
| genii | Maybe you have more than 1 audio device | 03:29 |

| Fritzel` | how do you perminantly disable dynamic word wrapping in kate? | 03:31 |
| Buhmanator | i have a cryptic error message from konqueror. my problem is that konqeror refuses to browse the file system. It wont open ANYTHING. no folders, pages, nothing. here is the error message it gives me when I type "/" into the location bar: | 03:31 |
| Buhmanator | "this appears to be a configuration error. you have associated Konqueror with inode/directory, but it cannot handle this file type" | 03:31 |
| Buhmanator | Now, last time I checked, the WHOLE point of konqueror was to browse the file system. How can it not support "inode/directory"? | 03:31 |
| Buhmanator | Major problem, when I go to the said dialog in the emedding tab of the file associations tab of the configure-konqueror dialog, | 03:31 |
| Buhmanator | when I click on the "add" button on the services preference order subsection to add " Icon View (konq_iconview)" to the top of the list, there are no items in the list to add! | 03:31 |
| genii | Fritzel`: Change Dynamic Word Wrap=true line in ~/.kde/share/config/katerc | 03:33 |
| Fritzel` | thank you | 03:34 |
| genii | Fritzel`: np | 03:34 |
| Jucato | Buhmanator: I think we have already established earlier that you have a messed up KDE isntall. can you check if the fle /usr/lib/kde3/konq_iconview.so exists? | 03:34 |
| Jucato | if not, reinstall the konqueror package | 03:34 |
| sars | hello | 03:36 |

| Buhmanator | Jucato, fyi: the sucidal hotline is where iraq gets it's new bomber recruits | 03:41 |
| NickPresta | Buhmanator, surely you are not so rude and ignorant? | 03:41 |
| genii | sars: If you can ask your question here in clear english we may be able to assist | 03:41 |
| Jucato | Buhmanator: which is totally unrelated, offtopic, and offensive in here | 03:41 |
| iain | well that didn't change anything as far as the driver and resolution | 03:42 |
| Jucato | iain: you ran the command? | 03:42 |
| iain | yup | 03:42 |
| iain | both of them | 03:42 |
| Jucato | iain: when you were given a list of drivers to choose from, did you choose intel? | 03:42 |
| Buhmanator | lol, sorry | 03:42 |
| iain | it didn't give me any drivers to choose from | 03:43 |
| sars | this first time used unix | 03:43 |
| sars | :) | 03:43 |
| iain | just gave me keyboard layout stuff | 03:43 |
| Jucato | iain: it's supposed to be a sort of guided wizard thing | 03:43 |
| iain | yup | 03:43 |
| Jucato | hm... maybe the driver is not even installed.. | 03:43 |
| iain | the chip is being detected at boot... its in the dmesg log | 03:44 |
| Jucato | iain: can you check if xserver-xorg-video-intel is installed? | 03:44 |
| iain | okay | 03:44 |
| iain | no such file | 03:45 |
| Jucato | "dpkg -L | grep intel" should show it | 03:45 |
| Jucato | (or is it -l?) | 03:45 |
| Jucato | it's not a file. it's a package | 03:45 |
| genii | sars: اسْم : تهنئة | 03:46 |
| genii | Hmm | 03:46 |
| Jucato | iain: so it seems the video driver isn't installed at all. "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel" should install it | 03:46 |
| sars | i have wma music how can opne it | 03:46 |
| sars | ? | 03:46 |
| Jucato | !w32codecs | sars | 03:46 |
| ubotu | sars: The Win32 codecs are available from the Medibuntu repositories (see « /msg ubotu medibuntu »), and for releases prior to Gutsy, also at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages | 03:46 |

| Jucato | very *very* weird | 03:47 |
| sars | <genii> hello | 03:47 |
| sars | u arabic | 03:47 |
| clink | is there a way to restart the 7.04 to 7.10 update process, it stalled and for a day then the power went out | 03:48 |
| iain | perhaps I'll try manually hacking something in xorg.conf... | 03:48 |
| genii | sars: No, Canadian. I used a translator before | 03:48 |
| Jucato | iain: you can probably try to insert this line under Identifier "Configured Video Device" | 03:48 |
| Jucato | iain: Driver "intel" | 03:48 |
| genii | sars: For wma playing, install from Add/Remove programs win32codecs. For this you need to go to Edit Software Sources in Add/Remove Programs and select repositories universe and multiverse | 03:50 |
| Fritzel` | !games | Fritzel stop forgetting where this is | 03:50 |
| ubotu | Fritzel stop forgetting where this is: Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php | 03:50 |
| genii | sars: After install of win32codecs you can play wma in kaffeine or amarok | 03:51 |
| genii | Fritzel`: heh :) | 03:51 |
| Jucato | genii: w32codecs are not in our repositories, even multiverse | 03:51 |
| clink | i can't get shared-mime-info to install, apt throws an error everytime | 03:52 |
| genii | Jucato: Ah, where the hell did I get them from? Must be medibuntu | 03:52 |
| Jucato | genii: definitely | 03:52 |
| Jucato | clink: can you pastebin the error? | 03:52 |

| trophyhead | hi, computer brainy dudes, or at lest I hope ya are hehe | 04:11 |
| Buhmanator | hi tropyhead | 04:11 |
| noys_ | how do i fix this problem? i ran the command apt-get and got this error Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 04:11 |
| trophyhead | hey is the bus speed of my computer in any way related to how fast a video card I can get? like the mhz's,? | 04:13 |
| MrJoey | Yes | 04:13 |
| MrJoey | It determines how fast video images can be sent from the motherboard/RAM to the video card. | 04:14 |
| MrJoey | For instance, when I installed a Radeon card, graphics acceleration was increased dramatically, but other things slowed down due to the overhead of sending data through the PCI bus. | 04:14 |
| sars | sory gis | 04:15 |
| sars | :) | 04:15 |
| MrJoey | For instance, using Compiz with the Radeon card results in a faster cube animation, but things are more jumpy because any time something changes, that change has to pass through the PCI bus rather than being zapped or mapped straight to integrated graphics. | 04:15 |
| trophyhead | hmm well that really bites!, I have an old ibm desktop & it's buc speed is 133mhz (turtle slow), currently have nvidia tnt2 | 04:15 |
| MrJoey | I don't know how fast my PCI bus is; I just know my computer is from about 2002. | 04:16 |
| Buhmanator | probably 33mhz | 04:16 |
| Buhmanator | or you could be nostalgic like me and underclock your pci bus to: 0.74mhz-- the same speed of an intel4004 | 04:17 |
| |TroubleMaker| | I've got a little problem with CUPS I am using a Linksys print server for my networked printing.

| monkeybritches | Wow, Buhmanator was from the future... | 04:26 |
| monkeybritches | Which applications? | 04:27 |
| QUEBALL | like firefox and vnc/mirc | 04:27 |
| dthacker | |TroubleMaker|: I have a linksys print server and I have not seen that problem. If Cups shows more than one driver available for your printer, you may want to try a different one. | 04:27 |
| |TroubleMaker| | I downloaded the driver from the brother website and used it. | 04:28 |
| Goldintel | hello queball | 04:28 |
| QUEBALL | hi | 04:28 |
| monkeybritches | There are linux versions of those applications | 04:29 |
| Goldintel | so what you finding out about this os | 04:29 |
| |TroubleMaker| | I dont have this problem with the printer hooked directly to my usb port. just with the print server.... | 04:29 |

| moj0rising | With that, does anyone mind me asking this broadcom question | 04:37 |
| === ronnie is now known as ronnietrophyhead | ||
| moj0rising | is that for the beta, monkeybritches? | 04:38 |
| monkeybritches | I don't think anyone minds you asking, but whether or not you'll get an answer that works for you is a different story | 04:38 |
| monkeybritches | Yes | 04:38 |
| moj0rising | OK. Well. | 04:38 |
| moj0rising | after upgrading and working through some issues... | 04:38 |

| dthacker | |TroubleMaker|: I'd check the forums for a similar issue or ask the question on launchpad | 04:39 |
| moj0rising | I have searched the forums, which recoomend some somewhat unconventional fixes.. | 04:39 |
| moj0rising | ...what I really want to know is... | 04:40 |
| moj0rising | ...how can I remove the "restricted" broadcom driver... | 04:40 |
| moj0rising | ...I loaded while running gutsy. | 04:40 |
| moj0rising | I don't need wireless on this machine | 04:40 |
| moj0rising | and it never worked right anyway. | 04:40 |
| moj0rising | I know how to remove the restricted driver from within kde.. | 04:40 |
| |TroubleMaker| | dthacker, thanks man...I'll continue to look. Its gotta be something simple i've missed. just a PITA to delete each job before printing the next one ya know. | 04:40 |
| moj0rising | ...but I don't have kde working right now because of this. | 04:41 |
| ronnietrophyhead | well I just looked, my bus speed is 133mhz & the nvidia tnt2 cards 150 mhz, so guess my only option is ta get rid of this ole clunker pc, = ) a better video card won't help = ( | 04:41 |
| dthacker | |TroubleMaker|: sorry I couldn't be more help. Good luck | 04:41 |

| === ronnietrophyhead is now known as trophyhead | ||

| trophyhead | *sigh* if only I knew b4 bus speed is important for fast 3d graphics, tho my first time buying a pc, & the salesmen burnt me bigtime = ( | 04:44 |
| moj0rising | bummer. Thanks anyway. I'll keep searching. | 04:45 |

| brandi_ | ...I disabled the wireless in the BIOS.. | 05:16 |
| brandi_ | ...and that error is gone for now. | 05:16 |
| brandi_ | but the other restricted driver, nvidia... | 05:16 |
| brandi_ | ...is now causing a problem. | 05:16 |
| brandi_ | so I am thinking that was actually the reason x isn't loading. | 05:16 |
| brandi_ | I just couldn't see any errors on it. | 05:16 |
| brandi_ | so, I'm wondering how I can remove that nvidia driver now. | 05:17 |
| brandi_ | If I do that, I can get x going again. | 05:17 |
| brandi_ | going to try the "safe mode" x... | 05:17 |
| monkeybritches | Did you try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ? | 05:19 |
| brandi_ | nope. | 05:19 |
| brandi_ | I'll try it now though. | 05:19 |
| brandi_ | safe mode x doesn't work... | 05:19 |
| monkeybritches | And did you try to download a driver from nvidia? | 05:20 |
| brandi_ | well. I didn't download the driver from nvidia. I used the restricted drivers tool in gutsy.. | 05:24 |
| brandi_ | ...to install it... | 05:24 |
| brandi_ | ...and when I did an upgrade... | 05:24 |
| brandi_ | I got all these errors with the wifi and nvidia video. | 05:25 |
| brandi_ | in hindsight, I should have removed those before upgrading. | 05:25 |
| brandi_ | but I basically forgot they were there. :) | 05:25 |
| monkeybritches | Well I hope you get it worked out. Time to go running... | 05:27 |
| brandi_ | thanks again! | 05:28 |
| monkeybritches | You're welcome | 05:28 |

| sigma_1234 | can a sudo cronjob be run at every startup? | 06:20 |
| cpk1 | why dont you just make a script that runs at startup instead? | 06:20 |
| cpk1 | sigma_1234: afaik cron is for scheduled jobs, i.e. do this at this time | 06:21 |
| sigma_1234 | because i want it to install a deb at every startup without prompting me for the root password | 06:21 |
| cpk1 | you could just script that | 06:22 |
| sigma_1234 | but how would you get around entering the root password while installing the deb? | 06:22 |
| === solid_li` is now known as solid_liq | ||
| cpk1 | put "/usr/bin/aptitude -y install somepackage" in /etc/rc.local i think will work | 06:24 |
| sigma_1234 | i was thinking about cron but if a pc on the network missed it it would never be updated the whole day | 06:25 |
| sigma_1234 | is rc.local the startup file? | 06:25 |
| cpk1 | sigma_1234: when you start the computer it reads rc.local last for things to do | 06:27 |
| sigma_1234 | ah yes i knew that sounded familiar | 06:27 |
| sigma_1234 | but the network both wired or wireless will be active before it reads that file hey? | 06:28 |
| cpk1 | sigma_1234: yes | 06:29 |
| cpk1 | sigma_1234: i suppose you could just make a text file with "/usr/bin/aptitude -y install somepackage" and then put it in rc2.d i think is the right run level and then name it "Ssomenumberlowerthannetwork.myfilename" | 06:31 |
| cpk1 | sigma_1234: but why would a computer need to reinstall something on every boot? | 06:31 |

| mEck0 | god morning! I have problem with Amarok which doesn't recognize my Ipod Nano 3rd Gen (8Gb). I've red that it's a bug, but haven't found how to fix it :( | 06:41 |
| luis__ | so is there any one that can help me please? | 06:41 |
| cpk1 | luis__: games is a very broad term | 06:41 |
| luis__ | ok | 06:41 |

| ubotu | luis__: Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php | 06:41 |
| luis__ | card games | 06:41 |
| cpk1 | the kde games package probably includes some | 06:41 |
| luis__ | the thing is that i typr sudo aptitude to fin out what programs were not install and then i found games so i did install them, it took about two days, but at the end there are no games on the menu | 06:42 |
| luis__ | so i dont know how to install them | 06:42 |
| luis__ | i am taking a look to the addresses you say, but none of them say for kubuntu is that a problem? | 06:45 |
| noodles12 | is there a reason why using gisomount results in "file selected is not an iso file" but i can manually mount the file from the command line? | 06:45 |
| luis__ | this is what it says: | 06:46 |

| Ukonpoika | Install the kdegames package, it comes with a few card games | 06:48 |
| dwidmann | and/or the kde4games package :) | 06:52 |
| dwidmann | ***erm, kdegames-kde4 | 06:52 |
| dwidmann | Comes with some heavy dependencies, but worth it | 06:52 |
| Daisuke_Ido | just for giggles, anyone have any experience with the HP L7680? | 06:52 |
| dwidmann | Daisuke_Ido: not I | 06:52 |
| Daisuke_Ido | btw patience = best card game collection out there | 06:53 |
| Daisuke_Ido | for look, feel, and quality of included games | 06:53 |
| dwidmann | Daisuke_Ido: what repo and/or packages contain it? | 06:54 |
| Daisuke_Ido | patience | 06:55 |
| Daisuke_Ido | !info patience | 06:55 |
| ubotu | Package patience does not exist in gutsy | 06:55 |
| Daisuke_Ido | is that still broken? | 06:55 |
| dwidmann | Daisuke_Ido: apparently, I'm not seeing it in Hardy either | 06:56 |
| Daisuke_Ido | !info kpat | 06:56 |
| ubotu | kpat (source: kdegames): KDE solitaire patience game. In component main, is optional. Version 4:3.5.8-0ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 334 kB, installed size 812 kB | 06:56 |
| Daisuke_Ido | no, that's not it :\ | 06:56 |
| Daisuke_Ido | wait, wait, i could be wrong. it used to be called patience... | 06:57 |
| Daisuke_Ido | it *is* kpat | 06:58 |
| dwidmann | Daisuke_Ido: I assumed it was a printer and looked it up on openprinting.org and didn't see it specifically, bu I see an L7600 and L7700 listed, it'd probably work if the 7600 works .... I woudl guess | 06:58 |
| Daisuke_Ido | dwidmann, it is, but it's supposed to be wireless. i've been trying to help someone get it set up over the phone | 06:59 |
| Daisuke_Ido | so i was looking for someone familiar with its menus and structure to find out how to set ssid and wep key | 06:59 |
| dwidmann | Daisuke_Ido: usual approach isn't working? :( | 06:59 |
| Daisuke_Ido | what, the "just name off everything you see" approach? no :( | 07:00 |
| dwidmann | Daisuke_*: so much easier with physical access.. | 07:01 |
| Daisuke_Ido | yes, it is | 07:02 |
| Daisuke_Ido | unfortunately, about 500 miles is a bit tough right now | 07:02 |
| dwidmann | Those gas prices will stop you dead in your tracks if you're not careful | 07:04 |
| dwidmann | With my car that'd be about $80-110 worth of gas | 07:05 |
| === zakame_ is now known as zakame | ||

| Daisuke_Ido | 35 to the gallon here... about $50 | 07:07 |
| dwidmann | I get 30 to the gallon .... | 07:07 |
| Daisuke_Ido | good thing is it's all highway | 07:07 |
| dwidmann | I guess 500 was round trip? | 07:07 |
| Daisuke_Ido | we're paying $3.46 right now | 07:07 |
| dwidmann | ouch | 07:07 |
| Daisuke_Ido | 500's one way | 07:07 |
| Daisuke_Ido | would be $100 round trip | 07:08 |
| dwidmann | I can get it for about $3.10 if I'm in the right town when I stop for it .... otherwise it hits about $3.299 max | 07:08 |
| Ukonpoika | -> #kubuntu-offtopic please. | 07:08 |
| dwidmann | at least I haven't seen it higher than that yet ..... | 07:08 |
| * dwidmann knocks on wood | 07:08 | |
| Daisuke_Ido | Ukonpoika, having an issue currently? | 07:11 |
| Daisuke_Ido | dwidmann, think i found what i needed for that printer... | 07:16 |
| Daisuke_Ido | she doesn't have a manual, which would have been REALLY helpful. | 07:16 |
| dwidmann | Oh? | 07:16 |
| dwidmann | indeed | 07:16 |
| === jords__ is now known as jords | ||
| Daisuke_Ido | well, like a typical network printer, i was having her check settings via the http setup page | 07:17 |
| Daisuke_Ido | but no, wireless info isn't there. | 07:17 |
| Daisuke_Ido | it's actually all *IN* the printer's control panel on the front face... with no way to change it without physical access to the printer | 07:18 |

| makdaknife | hello everybody | 09:38 |
| aftertaf | hi | 09:40 |
| bob__ | Hi I need some help..how do I use windows instant messenger and yahoo and where do if find it | 09:45 |
| intelikey | !msn | 09:47 |
| ubotu | Instant Messenger Client Kopete (http://kopete.kde.org) is supporting MSN, Jabber, AIM, Gadu-Gadu, Novell Groupwise, ICQ and IRC. See also !Pidgin | 09:47 |
| aftertaf | bob__: you sure you 'NEED' windows messenger? | 09:48 |
| aftertaf | intelikey: though MSN is borked in kopete right now. | 09:48 |
| aftertaf | hardy at least | 09:48 |
| intelikey | aftertaf k i'll note that. although i probably wont be here much. | 09:49 |
| makdaknife | I'm having a small load problem... one of my boxes is sitting constantly at a 0.58 load average... however, running top no processes seem to be using the CPU... how can I determine what is causing this load problem | 09:49 |
| bob__ | when I was using the live CD I found it..But now I cant find it | 09:49 |
| aftertaf | makdaknife: top | 09:49 |
| aftertaf | might be kded being spooky again | 09:49 |
| intelikey | one half of a percent ? is there an xserver running ? | 09:50 |
| makdaknife | aftertaf: ... running top no processes seem to be using the CPU | 09:50 |
| makdaknife | intelikey: no... I have shutdown x | 09:50 |
| aftertaf | 0.5% usage == load problem? sure about that? | 09:50 |
| makdaknife | intelikey: load at 0.58=58% usage | 09:50 |
| intelikey | you do realize that it requires cpu to poll the cpu usage ? | 09:51 |
| makdaknife | load at 1=100% usage | 09:51 |
| makdaknife | intelikey: yes | 09:51 |
| intelikey | oh that wasn't percent. i see. | 09:51 |
| intelikey | then yes constant 50 is high | 09:51 |
| aftertaf | lol :) | 09:51 |
| bob__ | Ok I got..Thanks | 09:56 |
| cpk1 | it says my load average is over 1.0... | 09:58 |
| makdaknife | cpk1: your CPU is being used 100% and there are other processes waiting in the run queue | 09:58 |
| cpk1 | experiencing no slowdown... | 09:59 |
| cpk1 | Cpu(s): 8.6%us, 2.3%sy is what I would imagine to be relevant cpu info | 09:59 |
| clau30 | if load 1=100% how can 1.75 be possible? 175%? | 09:59 |
| cpk1 | 1 user, load average: 1.07, 1.08, 1.08 is what I have | 10:00 |
| cpk1 | but like I said no slowdown or anything | 10:00 |
| makdaknife | man uptime: | 10:02 |
| makdaknife | System load averages is the average number of processes that are either in a runnable or uninterruptable state. A process in a runnable state is either using the CPU | 10:02 |
| makdaknife | or waiting to use the CPU. A process in uninterruptable state is waiting for some I/O access, eg waiting for disk. The averages are taken over the three time inter‐ | 10:02 |
| makdaknife | vals. Load averages are not normalized for the number of CPUs in a system, so a load average of 1 means a single CPU system is loaded all the time while on a 4 CPU | 10:02 |
| makdaknife | system it means it was idle 75% of the time. | 10:02 |
| * makdaknife yawns... jebus you would think this is a Microsoft users channel | 10:02 | |
| RogueJediX | !paste | makdaknife | 10:02 |
| ubotu | makdaknife: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic) | 10:02 |
| makdaknife | RogueJediX: apologies... but it seems that a large number of users need some educating | 10:03 |
| cpk1 | oh, so I guess e2fsck running for the last couple hours would cuase system load to go up | 10:04 |
| RogueJediX | makdaknife: No prob | 10:04 |
| makdaknife | interesting... I have just noticed that only one core of my CPU seems to be represented in htop... yet... cat /proc/cpuinfo shows: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+ | 10:06 |
| makdaknife | any ideas why only one core might not be being used? | 10:06 |
| clau30 | makdaknife: thanks for the enlightment ;) | 10:06 |
| cpk1 | it could just be htop not reporting correctly right? | 10:07 |
| makdaknife | cpk1: usually when you cat /proc/cpuinfo on a dual core it reports for both cores... but its only reporting for one... so I don't think htop is reporting incorrectly | 10:08 |
| makdaknife | cpk1: it may also explain why the box is behaving as if it is under load the whole time | 10:09 |

| twager | Any way I can burn mp3 files as .wav and get the titles insead of tracknumbers ? | 12:58 |
| mm_202 | Question: is it possible to have a window only on selective desktops? (eg: more than one, but not all of them) | 13:05 |
| clau30 | mm_202: what? | 13:07 |
| mm_202 | Can I have a window, in KDE, appear on more than more desktop? | 13:08 |
| clau30 | mm_202: yes, right click on it in the winow bar, then desktop->all desktops | 13:08 |
| mm_202 | no | 13:08 |
| mm_202 | [07:05:38] <mm_202> Question: is it possible to have a window only on selective desktops? (eg: more than one, but not all of them) | 13:09 |
| mm_202 | On selective desktops. Like 1,2, and 5. | 13:09 |
| Jucato | mm_202: no. it's either just one desktop or all of them | 13:09 |
| clau30 | mm_202: got you now. No, I don't think that's possible | 13:09 |
| twager | Any way I can burn mp3 files as .wav and get the titles insead of tracknumbers ?? | 13:09 |
| mm_202 | :/ | 13:09 |
| mm_202 | damn | 13:09 |
| mm_202 | would be a really nice feature to have. | 13:09 |
| mm_202 | Okay, thanks guys. | 13:10 |
| clau30 | request it :P | 13:10 |
| clau30 | no probs | 13:10 |
| mm_202 | lol, where? :) | 13:10 |
| mm_202 | Im a C++ coder, so Im sure I could even write a patch :D | 13:10 |
| clau30 | I guess bugs.kde.org as a feature request | 13:10 |
| mm_202 | kk, will do. | 13:10 |
| * Jucato guesses it's not technically possible, otherwise it would have been done by now... just imho | 13:10 | |
| * mm_202 smiles as Jucato | 13:11 | |
| mm_202 | Where there's a will, there is always a way. | 13:11 |
| clau30 | Jucato: maybe in kde4? | 13:11 |
| Jucato | mm_202: you're definitely not the first to have thought of that feature.... I think they had wills too :) | 13:12 |
| mm_202 | Jucato: heh, fair enough :) | 13:12 |
| mm_202 | I gotta handle something for work, but I'll be back and argue a bit more with you later ;) | 13:13 |
| Jucato | in any case, relevant parts of KDE that you might want to take a look into would be KWin (Window Manager) and Plasma (desktop) | 13:13 |
| makdaknife | twager: do you want to convert mp3 files to wav, or do you want to rip a cd to wav instead of mp3? | 13:14 |
| twager | makdaknife: If I burn the files as audio with k3b they do not show titles only track numbers | 13:15 |
| ubuntu | somebody ? | 13:17 |
| ubuntu | somebody is here ???? | 13:17 |
| makdaknife | twager: are you ripping from a cd or are you burning to cd | 13:17 |
| makdaknife | ubuntu: don't ask to ask | 13:18 |
| ubuntu | en faite j suis français c'etait pour savoir si il y avait quelqun | 13:18 |
| makdaknife | !fr | 13:18 |
| ubotu | Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais. | 13:18 |
| twager | makdaknife: Files I have d/loaded as mp3 and need to burn to a cd but with track titles not track numbers. | 13:19 |
| twager | makdaknife: As .wav cos the cdplayer is very old and will not see mp3 | 13:20 |
| makdaknife | twager: in K3B select create an Audio CD, and drag the mp3s into the window... the CD-Text will be generated based on the ID3Tags in the mp3s themselves... very few CD players that I've come across even read the CD-Text | 13:21 |
| makdaknife | twager: when you create and Audio CD it will convert the mp3s to WAV automatically | 13:22 |
| twager | makdaknife: That is what I do but whilst it creates .wav files it does not include the title just the numerical order on the disk | 13:23 |
| makdaknife | twager: if your cd-player is so old... does it matter? | 13:24 |
| twager | makdaknife: It would be nice to see what was on the cd ..especially if I gave them away | 13:26 |
| twager | makdaknife: I know it can be done in Windows so thought it would be done in Linux ? | 13:27 |
| Dr_willis | ive never noticed it done in windows either. :) | 13:29 |
| Dr_willis | but then again - i never worry about getting the info back. heh | 13:29 |
| twager | Dr_willis: Name tags ? | 13:33 |
| Dr_willis | I got some Dog Tags. :) | 13:34 |
| makdaknife | twager: I'm not really sure what you're looking for... but K3B will burn CD-Text with Title and Artist info based on what it can extract from the id3 tags... if your mp3s have ID3Tags properly specified, then K3B can burn cd-text | 13:35 |
| twager | makdaknife: Would files d/loaded with Frostwire have the tags ? | 13:37 |
| buz | what could be the reason that windows sees my digicam in UMS mode just fine whereas kubuntu finds a new scsi device but cant mount it? | 13:44 |
| * Dr_willis wonders what UMS mode is.. | 13:44 | |
| Dr_willis | You could try mounting it manually. check dmesg output when plugging it in. It may just be uubnut is a little confused | 13:45 |
| buz | Dr_willis: usb mass storage | 13:46 |
| buz | well if i try to mount it manually, mount just freezes | 13:46 |
| niko_ | i got a nsplugingviewer error how can i fix that ? | 13:47 |
| buz | you mean it crashed? | 13:47 |
| clau30 | there was something like nspluginviewer -i /path/to/flashplayer.so ... | 13:51 |
| niko_ | buz: no i got that in konkeror | 13:51 |
| niko_ | nvm i repair my problem alone | 14:00 |

| zseller | what is with other laptop | 14:40 |
| zseller | what system is it running | 14:40 |
| Fleck | same | 14:40 |
| Fleck | kubuntu | 14:40 |
| zseller | but wireless card | 14:40 |
| Fleck | intel | 14:41 |
| Fleck | intel pro 4965 or something like that | 14:41 |
| zseller | do you have winblows on the wron machine | 14:41 |
| clau30 | Fleck: I suggest to look at wiki.ubuntu.com... (or wiki.ubuntuusers.de if you know german ;) | 14:42 |
| Fleck | i'm all the time there :P searching heh | 14:43 |
| zseller | you can confirm it that the card worked before | 14:44 |
| Fleck | yep! :) | 14:44 |
| zseller | then what happened since | 14:44 |
| Fleck | i reinstalled to windows (removed debian, where this card was working) and today - back to kubuntu :) | 14:45 |
| zseller | is it then a dual boot or what | 14:46 |
| Fleck | no i don't have windows anymore ;) | 14:46 |
| zseller | and the old kubuntu was the same version | 14:46 |
| Fleck | old was debian :) | 14:46 |
| zseller | and you did not touch the AP setting | 14:46 |
| Fleck | and about 2 years ago | 14:47 |
| Fleck | :P | 14:47 |
| clau30 | zseller: it's just some wireless configuration (on the kubuntu machine) I guess | 14:47 |
| Fleck | well i can find 5 networks around me with Intel wireless card - kubuntu | 14:47 |
| zseller | the windows drivers are the same that you used that time | 14:47 |
| Fleck | and no results with this | 14:47 |
| Fleck | zseller dunno :( | 14:47 |
| Fleck | now i'm downloading another windows drivers :( | 14:48 |
| Fleck | 3rd drivers | 14:48 |
| zseller | what is the signal strength on other networks | 14:48 |
| Fleck | first two acts the same | 14:48 |
| genii | Perhaps your AP is not broadcasting | 14:49 |
| Fleck | zseller not werry good :) | 14:49 |
| Fleck | genii it is :) | 14:49 |
| zseller | maybe wrong windows drivers | 14:49 |
| Fleck | even my mobile phone detects my wireless network :) | 14:49 |
| Fleck | zseller yep - that's why i'm downloading another one ;) | 14:50 |
| zseller | you dont have the install cd with old drivers dont you | 14:50 |
| Fleck | nope i don't | 14:51 |
| zseller | try to remember the version and the name, then search for them | 14:51 |
| Fleck | :) that was the werry first thing i tried to do! | 14:52 |
| zseller | if it worked on debian on ubuntu should work too | 14:52 |
| Fleck | i know ;) | 14:52 |
| zseller | suppose you should get the right drivers,and lspci could be wrong | 14:53 |
| zseller | how many sys files in the win drivers package | 14:54 |
| zseller | hello? | 14:56 |
| Fleck | zseller 4 | 14:57 |
| Fleck | .cat, .sys, .inf an .pnf | 14:58 |

| sigma_1234 | please can i have an example on how to use the wget command? | 15:07 |
| earthling | did that .. it is just not connecting | 15:07 |
| BluesKaj | Howdy all | 15:09 |
| clau30 | sigma_1234: man wget | 15:09 |
| sigma_1234 | well just a basic example on how to download a file and place it in my home folder using wget. what command would i use? | 15:13 |
| BluesKaj | what browser sigma_1234 ? | 15:14 |
| catweazle | sigma_1234: wget -Nc file.tgz | 15:14 |
| sigma_1234 | doesnt it work off the command line? | 15:14 |
| nitin | sigma_1234, i right click on the download link, and open terminal and type wget -c , and then right click and paste | 15:15 |
| TheFuzzball | sigma_1234, you can just cd to your home and wget http://whatever.com/file | 15:15 |
| nitin | i have used this to download some files | 15:15 |
| sigma_1234 | say i want to download www.example.com/help.zip to /home/sigma . what would the command be? | 15:15 |
| TheFuzzball | wget d www.example.com/help.zip | 15:16 |
| TheFuzzball | wget www.example.com/help.zip * | 15:16 |
| BluesKaj | ahh, I knew i'd learn something new today nitin :) | 15:16 |
| sigma_1234 | TheFuzzball: how do you specify where it saves the file? | 15:17 |
| nitin | by default, it saves in the home folder | 15:17 |
| sigma_1234 | by using the command you gave me above | 15:18 |
| BluesKaj | the default is home/yourusername in the cli , correct ? | 15:18 |
| * BluesKaj is quite sure it is | 15:18 | |
| sigma_1234 | ah i see. but can you tell it to save somewhere else? | 15:18 |
| BluesKaj | cd to a diff dir | 15:18 |
| TheFuzzball | sigma_1234, be in the directory where you want it to save | 15:18 |
| sigma_1234 | but what if its a command i run automatically using kcron? | 15:19 |
| TheFuzzball | sigma_1234, try wget --help and look at the options | 15:20 |
| sigma_1234 | ok thanks guys | 15:20 |
| TheFuzzball | ah, got it! | 15:20 |
| clau30 | sigma_1234: or do a google search ;) | 15:20 |
| TheFuzzball | wget -P /home/whatever http://ewguoot.com/fiel | 15:20 |

| bibstha | hi all, any ways i can get konqueror to use gecko engine? | 15:22 |
| bibstha | like a configuration somehwere | 15:22 |
| makdaknife | bibstha: i don't think so... | 15:22 |
| TheFuzzball | sigma_1234, prefix | 15:22 |
| Jucato | bibstha: no | 15:22 |
| bibstha | ohh, | 15:23 |
| bibstha | but it seems pretty sleek with kde4 | 15:23 |
| sigma_1234 | ok cool. il have to try that | 15:23 |
| bibstha | just that google groups looks somewhat funny in konqueroor | 15:23 |
| bas | hoi ho | 15:24 |
| clau30 | bibstha: don't think you can | 15:26 |
| clau30 | bibstha: but it soon be webkit available, so woohoo | 15:26 |
| bibstha | webkit? humm | 15:34 |
| bibstha | !webkit | 15:34 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about webkit - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 15:34 |
| bibstha | btw a google toolbar for konqueror? beside the regular gg: | 15:35 |
| bibstha | ? | 15:35 |
| genii | !info webkit | 15:35 |
| ubotu | Package webkit does not exist in gutsy | 15:35 |
| genii | Hmm. I'm fairly sure it does exist, in backports | 15:35 |
| bibstha | webkit means we'd have to make our websites compatible with yet another engine? | 15:37 |
| === Ace2016 is now known as wols_ | ||
| Jucato | bibstha: not really, if it's already compatible with safari | 15:38 |

| Jucato | bibstha: there are lots of web shortcuts for konqueror. gg, wp, m-w, etc. see them in Settings -> Configure Konqueror -> Web Shortcuts | 15:40 |
| genii | Jucato: Thanks | 15:40 |
| === wols_ is now known as Ace2016 | ||
| bibstha | Jucato: yeah i've been looking at those, seems really nice | 15:40 |
| Jucato | you can also use them in the Run Command box, like Alt+F2, then gg:search terms | 15:41 |
| Jucato | (actually you can open any webpage from there too) | 15:41 |
| bibstha | i recently dl kde4 in gusty as suggested in kubuntu.org | 15:41 |
| bibstha | and firefox looks horribly ugly thus giving konqueror a try | 15:41 |
| bibstha | so far i've been quite happy | 15:41 |
| bibstha | which kde will hardy use? 3 or 4? | 15:42 |
| * ct529 hopes for a cleaned up version of kde4 | 15:43 | |
| Jucato | bibstha: both | 15:44 |
| bibstha | Jucato: umm, the beta version had 3 | 15:44 |
| Jucato | as for Firefox looking uggly in KDE 4, there's a gtk-kde4 "plugin" that sort of fixes that | 15:44 |
| Jucato | bibstha: there's also a KDE 4 Remix for Hardy Beta | 15:44 |
| bibstha | i guess kde4's gonna be on the repos | 15:44 |
| * BluesKaj wishes they would have concentrated their efforts on useablilty rather than the different "look" | 15:44 | |
| bibstha | gtk-kde4? on backports? | 15:44 |
| bibstha | Jucato: aah | 15:44 |
| bibstha | BluesKaj: i like the looks though really clean | 15:44 |
| Jucato | BluesKaj: you're referring to KDE 4? | 15:45 |
| BluesKaj | yeah Jucato | 15:45 |
| Jucato | 1. Who says they didn't? 2. Who says they won't? 3. And who will tell them what and what not to work on? | 15:45 |
| ct529 | I like kde4 very much, and its usability too | 15:45 |
| ct529 | the only reason i have not moved yet is kontact, that still has some minor issues there | 15:46 |
| BluesKaj | yeah Jucato , no kidding :) | 15:46 |
| Jucato | unless KDE is run by a company, no one dictates what should be done, what should be focused on, and what should be abandoned | 15:46 |
| Jucato | (same with Kubuntu actually) | 15:46 |
| bibstha | ct529: btw konversation hasn't been ported yet either has it? | 15:46 |
| Jucato | bibstha: not yet | 15:46 |
| vader_ | Уважаемые, а есть тут кто Русскоговорящий.....? Прошу помощи! | 15:46 |
| Jucato | they will start porting after they release Konvi 1.1 | 15:46 |
| bibstha | ooh | 15:46 |
| ct529 | bibstha: no, but old konv works very well there | 15:47 |
| bibstha | yeah im using it | 15:47 |
| bibstha | well btw there is i think bug in kopete | 15:47 |
| bibstha | msn doesnot work | 15:47 |
| Jucato | !ru | vader_ | 15:47 |
| ubotu | vader_: Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke | 15:47 |
| vader_ | Thanks a lot! | 15:47 |
| * BluesKaj understands they are volunteers , hence not to be taken to task about flaws ... I hope my citricism is viewed as constructive :) | 15:47 | |
| ct529 | the other problem I have is that you cannot select odd or even pages from the kde print manager interface yet | 15:48 |
| bibstha | BluesKaj: no problem | 15:48 |
| clau30 | BluesKaj: that's not constructive criticism ;) | 15:48 |
| Jucato | BluesKaj: more like wishful thinking? hehe :) | 15:48 |
| bibstha | haha | 15:48 |
| * BluesKaj detects heat from flames | 15:48 | |
| clau30 | BluesKaj: if you want to be helpful you can go to bugs.kde.org and help fix those nasty bugs ;) | 15:48 |
| Jucato | BluesKaj: although sometimes statements like those could sound unfair for those who poured sweat and blood into making KDE 4 usable :) | 15:49 |
| bibstha | one more thing? ctrl+enter = .com at the end in mozilla, anything similar in konqueror? | 15:49 |
| Jucato | bibstha: not that I know of | 15:49 |
| BluesKaj | err love me love my dog :) | 15:49 |
| Jucato | BluesKaj: and to be fair, only Plasma is the one that needs more work than others :P | 15:49 |
| BluesKaj | Jucato, agreed | 15:49 |
| bibstha | Jucato: ohh and yes Plasma too | 15:49 |
| clau30 | BluesKaj: KDE4 is "under construction" and if you see what the developers say, usability is a big point.. | 15:49 |
| clau30 | I think KDE4 is a monster yet to awake :) | 15:50 |
| bibstha | im more impressed with interface :D | 15:50 |
| ct529 | I think kde 4 is very usable actually, I like the new kicker a lot, I ma finding it difficult to go back to gnome or kde 3 | 15:51 |
| BluesKaj | hey , I'm trying kde4.,..it's my opinion so far ...isn't that aceptable ? | 15:52 |
| Jucato | of course it is :) | 15:52 |
| clau30 | BluesKaj: of course it is | 15:52 |
| clau30 | hehe | 15:52 |
| clau30 | but not really true | 15:52 |
| bibstha | where is gtk-kde4? | 15:52 |
| clau30 | like you said they didn't focus on usability | 15:52 |
| Jucato | actually, #kubuntu-kde4 should be the place for KDE 4 discussions | 15:53 |
| Jucato | (but I'm not there so...) | 15:53 |
| clau30 | actually #kde-cafe :) | 15:53 |
| bibstha | oh | 15:53 |
| * BluesKaj goes for another coffee | 15:53 | |
| Jucato | bibstha: ask there, I forgot the name... might be gtk-qt4 actually | 15:53 |
| Jucato | clau30: nope | 15:53 |
| clau30 | BluesKaj: that's not what I ment, lol | 15:53 |
| clau30 | Jucato: no? | 15:53 |
| makdaknife | mmmm coffee | 15:53 |
| Jucato | clau30: @ kde-cafe | 15:54 |
| ct529 | sorry, what is #kde-cafe? | 15:54 |
| clau30 | why not Jucato? | 15:54 |
| clau30 | oh, got it | 15:54 |
| clau30 | sorry, I was talking about what BluesKaj said :) | 15:55 |
| Jucato | and bibstha misinterpreted it and asked in the wrong channel | 15:55 |
| clau30 | yep, I saw it now, sorry ;) | 15:55 |
| BluesKaj | coincidence | 15:56 |
| makdaknife | wow... someone in my office said "coincidence" at the exact time BluesKaj did... weird | 15:57 |
| clau30 | :)) | 15:57 |
| makdaknife | it was like it was in stereo | 15:57 |
| clau30 | bibstha: you could also try to find it in adept.. | 15:57 |

| NickPresta | dennister, then you need to do something like 'locate flash' | 16:56 |
| dennister | NickPresta: k...do locates regularly...have lots of results...doesn't tell me which directory is the installation directory | 16:58 |
| jhutchins | Doesn't aptitude has some tool that lists the files belonging to a package and where they're installed? | 17:00 |
| trappist | dennister: I haven't tried their installer - I just grab the files and dump them in /usr/lib/firefox/plugins | 17:00 |
| Nirkus | hi! are there smaller netinstall images for kubuntu? even to boot them from an usb stick? | 17:00 |
| trappist | jhutchins: dpkg -L packagename | 17:00 |

| Odd-rationale | !mini | Nirkus | 17:00 |
| ubotu | Nirkus: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 17:00 |
| dennister | trappist: yeah, well, i tried installing into that particular directory u just mentioned, but i'm still not getting the videos | 17:02 |
| dennister | which is why i'm asking which one is the proper installation directory :) | 17:02 |
| trappist | dennister: did you restart firefox? | 17:02 |
| dennister | yes | 17:02 |
| trappist | dennister: also, why didn't you install the ubuntu package? | 17:02 |
| dennister | because i get the messages to get flash too often when i use the repository package | 17:03 |
| dennister | even after I have installed it, using the reporsitory version and adobe-site versions | 17:03 |
| trappist | dennister: go to about:plugins in your address bar and see what it says about flash | 17:04 |
| Nirkus | ubotu: thanks. there is no usb stick image then, i guess? | 17:05 |
| dennister | k it says I have Shockwave Flash 9.0 r124 | 17:05 |

| dennister | yes, i do think soemthing's getting in the way...hold on | 17:06 |
| trappist | (the ps command may or may not list your grep command - that doesn't count as firefox running :) ) | 17:06 |

| dennister | k, found 2 libflashplayer.so files on system, deleted them | 17:12 |
| dennister | now, when I try this adobe version again, (timestamp march 28), the installer will ask me which is the installation directory | 17:15 |
| dennister | which is, I believe, the question I asked when i came into the channel....which is the proper isntallation directory? | 17:16 |
| dennister | friggin adobe instructions don't tell us how to find it...expects us to figure that out, and with so many directories affected... | 17:17 |

| CheGuevara | hi | 18:35 |
| Odd-rationale | hello! | 18:35 |
| dennister | ok...another possible way to handle the problem of finding the firefox installation directory.......the *.so files in /usr/lib/firefox/plugins are pretty well all symlinks to other files, but in konqueror the path is so long I'm not told what the root of the path is | 18:35 |
| dennister | how, in terminal, do I find the full path of a *so file in this directory? | 18:36 |
| trappist | in what directory? | 18:36 |
| trappist | do you mean the target of a symlink? | 18:36 |
| dennister | yes, the target | 18:36 |
| trappist | ls -l, usually | 18:37 |
| dennister | lol...a basic | 18:37 |
| dennister | trappist: unfortunately, ls-l <directory> gives me the same abbreviated info konqueror does...not the root of the target | 18:39 |
| trappist | dennister: it's the relative path... relative to where you are. so if it says ../../some/path, you start two directories above where you are | 18:39 |
| trappist | (actually relative to where the link is, not to where you are, if it's not the same place) | 18:40 |
| rickey | what is the sudo command to close adept mmmanager | 18:40 |
| dennister | trappist: ty, now i can find the targets | 18:41 |
| dennister | unfortunately, it doesn't help me in this case :( | 18:42 |
| rickey | > what is the sudo command to close adept manager anyone know? | 18:42 |

| dennister | genii: i'm having a real problem with flash...one in repositories is not installing 'cuz of an md4sum mismatch, and to use adobe's tarball i need to know where the firefox installation directory is...but I simply can't find that | 18:49 |
| genii | dennister: firefox doesnt really install into any one dir. Parts are in /usr/lib/firefox parts in /usr/share/firefox the binary is in /usr/bin and user specific things in ~/.mozilla/firefox | 18:52 |
| dennister | ok then, ty...will try another method | 18:52 |
| dennister | ok, nothing is working here, so if anyone else comes in here complaining about flash...it's adobe's fault, and don't bother with the repository version for now...the repositories need updating with that file | 18:58 |
| dennister | repository's version worked fine a few days ago, but not now...I'd be nervous about letting it be updated either | 19:00 |

| trophyhead | hi guys = ) I just came from the computer store & of course the salesmen was trying to sell me the most expensive video card, also told me I was wrong thinking bus speed will effect card performance? so is he fulla **** or whats your opinion? | 19:40 |
| GS3User | which bus? | 19:42 |
| trophyhead | umm not sure the bus speed of a computer, is there different ones? | 19:43 |
| GS3User | most things in a computer are buses really... AGP had several, PCI has one, PCIe has one, PCIe(16x) has one, there are memory bus speeds | 19:44 |
| GS3User | the list goes on | 19:44 |
| GS3User | generally speaking... faster is better | 19:44 |
| trophyhead | mines an old pentium4 desktop 2ghz, I was reading it from the internal specs menu I guess, its only 133mhz | 19:46 |
| trophyhead | bus is 133 I mean | 19:47 |
| frank_ | trophyhead: It's not worth it to put alot of money in old computers like that. Considering what you can get for 400$ new | 19:48 |
| trophyhead | ya I guess thx, just can't get rid of this ole clunker & having troulble saving 400, cause added to that is the moniter which is another 200 at least, oh well the cheap fix isn't the best route hehe | 19:50 |
| frank_ | trophyhead: well if you want to put a 60$ video card that's fine. but a 150$ one wouldn't make much sense | 19:51 |
| trophyhead | ya think ill be better off waiting & saving, thx for the advice = ) | 19:53 |

| steph_30 | shawn : open a terminal and type : dpkg --reconfigure -a | 20:27 |
| stan_ | ShawnRisk: use apt-get =) | 20:27 |
| genii | trtr: For configuring a printer, usually: System Settings ...Printers ...Add..Printer/Class ... Then from there it's a wizard that runs to guide you in install | 20:27 |
| trtr | yeah but it just says nothing detected when i run it | 20:28 |
| user1 | genii: stan_ what should be the mount point? | 20:29 |
| genii | user1: use pastebin website to post output of command: sudo fdisk -l so we can try to figure out what drive or partition holds your old Windows install | 20:30 |

| pulaski | Hello, I'm trying to install my canon i550 printer. I've added it successfully to cups and I've added it using the KDE printer System Setting. However in order to get it to actuall print I need to grab a couple of libraries. apt-get can't find the package libtiff3g and apt-get tells me that the libpng2 is not available but referred to by another package that has been obsoleted or is only available from another source. Can | 20:31 |
| pulaski | anyone here offer a suggestion on either package or any additions to my apt sources file? | 20:31 |
| genii | !pastebin | user1 in case you don't know about pastebin | 20:31 |
| ubotu | user1 in case you don't know about pastebin: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic) | 20:31 |
| ShawnRisk | steph_30: that didn't work, couldn't find reconfigure | 20:32 |
| ShawnRisk | stan_: that didn't work either | 20:32 |
| steph_30 | try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and tell us the issue | 20:33 |
| genii | pulaski: How did you come to the conclusion that libtiff3g and libpng2 are some libraries it is requiring? | 20:34 |
| user1 | genii: i cant open pastebin | 20:35 |
| pulaski | Thanks for respinding geni, I was searching the forums for tips and I found this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=10540&highlight=canon+i550 that mentioned the libraries. | 20:35 |

| pulaski | I've joined this channel a few times before but I'm pretty clueless about some of the finer points of IRC. Can someone tell me how I can get the user name of the person I'm responding too to precede my respnse and publish my response to this user in red? | 20:41 |
| user1 | genii: only one is pri. others are logical. http://pastebin.com/m7ea305b0 | 20:42 |
| SlimeyPete | pulaski: the "red" bit is handled automatically by your client and theirs (on my client, my name appears yellow and everyone else is white) | 20:42 |
| SlimeyPete | pulaski: however to address your first point, type the first few letters of their name and press tab | 20:42 |
| pulaski | good, thanks SlimeyPete. My client is Konversation. | 20:44 |
| JoshOvki | SlimeyPete: well i didnt know that | 20:44 |
| genii | user1: For now, make some temporary directory. Like: sudo mkdir /mnt/tmp then mount each possible partition there in turn and see if when you list the contents it fits what would be on old C:\ (or wherever you installed Windows to). So basic process wouold be mount, list, unmount, repeat until you hit the correct listing of files. Then you know which partition is the old Windows install | 20:44 |
| pulaski | SlimeyPete: THANKS! | 20:44 |
| SlimeyPete | :) | 20:44 |
| genii | pulaski: Sorry for inattention, I have become somewhat preoccupied on my current assisting, and also work is requiring me for brief periods | 20:45 |
| SlimeyPete | pulaski: chances are the colouring is set in the preferences menu somewhere (I don't use Konversation myself so I don't know for sure) | 20:45 |
| user1 | genii: ok. let me | 20:45 |
| pulaski | SlimeyPete: good deal! | 20:48 |

| akleinho | a few programs (firefox, audacity for example) state the following error: | 23:32 |
| akleinho | $ firefox | 23:32 |
| akleinho | /usr/lib/firefox-3.0b5/firefox: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_dpgettext | 23:32 |
| COMANDER | hi... | 23:35 |
| COMANDER | i've downloaded pidgin, and how can i install it? | 23:36 |
| akleinho | isn't sudo apt-get install pidgin possible? | 23:37 |
| GS3User | did you get it using the adept manager? | 23:37 |
| COMANDER | well im new in using linux and i can't understand a thing | 23:37 |
| akleinho | an easy way is to install it with the following command: | 23:37 |
| GS3User | start->system->adeptmanager | 23:38 |
| akleinho | sudo apt-get install pidgin | 23:38 |
| GS3User | gui interface for all your install needs | 23:38 |
| akleinho | of course GS3User's way is even easier | 23:38 |
| akleinho | No-one familiar with symbol lookup errors then? | 23:39 |
| GS3User | i'm fairly certain kopete comes with kubuntu also | 23:39 |
| GS3User | it's a multi-protocal IM program as well | 23:39 |
| GS3User | sorry, no | 23:41 |
| akleinho | ok, np | 23:41 |
| akleinho | another question: I would like to 'downgrade' to kubuntu 7.10 (from 8.04), whithout losing any files form my /home folder (which is placed on a separate partition) | 23:43 |
| akleinho | is there an easy way? | 23:43 |
| GS3User | sorry, i'm fairly new to linux myself... i can help with some of the issues i've dealt with, but that wouldn't be one of them | 23:44 |
| akleinho | :) again no problem. Is this usually a good irc for these kind of questions? | 23:44 |
| ScorpKing | akleinho: i think reinstall will be the easiest. just make sure you don't format the /home partition | 23:44 |
| akleinho | ah ok, thanks | 23:44 |
| GS3User | if someone is around, live help is generally preferable i've found | 23:44 |
| GS3User | but the forums are really awesome as well | 23:44 |
| * ScorpKing prefers using irc.. | 23:45 | |
| akleinho | ScorpKing, do you mean reinstalling from a Kubuntu cd? | 23:45 |
| ScorpKing | akleinho: yes | 23:45 |
| ScorpKing | akleinho: i also recommend to always keep /home on a seperate partition so reinstalling is easy ;) | 23:46 |
| akleinho | :) thanks, luckily I've (for the first time) just done that | 23:46 |
| ScorpKing | good choice :) | 23:47 |
| akleinho | alright, i'm going to do that, thanks, it feels more safe to have checked beforehand :) | 23:47 |
| akleinho | and I'm getting the feeling i'm going to use irc more to get answers to questions :) | 23:48 |
| akleinho | thanks again, see you later | 23:48 |
